Calling all Code Breakers!
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2003 7:56 pm
I've recently created an encoding tool that can be used to encode any text, email, webpage, etc.
A couple of my old collage mates who once went through a bit of a hacking phase have tried to decode a simple message I wrote and encoded using my tool... and failed.
So, I'm opening this up to anyone here who has a bit of spare time or is interested in this sort of thing. If you can decode the following message I'll give you £50 and also a copy of the encoder (which is PHP based and will work on any server that can run PHP).
You can catch me at si@urbanchaos.net for any questions or to claim you cash
PS. The 'key' to the message is in there somewhere, everything you need to decode it is in there!

The first to decode it and contact me wins the cash. Good luck.
